Entertaiment is amusement, a distraction or something to take your mind off your humdrum life for a while. Whether it is the clown at your kid’s birthday party, Broadway musical, or your friends fighting over the last potato chip, entertainment comes in all shapes and sizes. There is theatrical entertainment as shows, visual entertainment as the stuff you like to look at and audio entertainment as mostly music.
